        When people recognize they were wrong about something, as smugly satisfying as it may be it’s not actually helpful to tell them that they should have been correct sooner.

          I don’t think it’s about being smug. It’s about pointing out the important fact that none of this is new except the scale. Divide by 100-1000 and this is just daily life in Palestine.

      And just like with Russia, my soul bleeds for the people who have nothing to do with this…

        And who would that be? The exactly 1 IDF soldier that refused to fight? Because all Israelis are IDF soldiers.

          There was an article posted recently about tens of thousands of Israelis marching in Tel Aviv, demanding Bibi resign and an immediate ceasefire.

            For the hostages. I mean it’s not like I don’t want the hostages to return but most of them are definitely not there for the genocide. See: How 88% of Israeli Jews support the war, and 94% think Israel is using too little or just enough fire power.

              Well idk really, since the only “not USA approved” news I ever get is here, so I can’t really make an informed argument either for or against what you’re saying. I just don’t know how credible any news source may be, regardless whether slant is immediately obvious or not.

                  Oh gees, I remember reading this now. My fault, thank you for bringing it back to memory. That’s… not encouraging at all, is it?
